Hello there.
I have a laptop (from work, not mine) which came with Windows 7. Company policy says I am not allowed to repartition the system but doesn't mention anything about dual booting being banned. Which means there's a possibility to install linux on the box, as long as it is self-contained away from Windows 7 and the bloody antivirus they're using which seems to erase any piece of open source software just because it's OSS... In the past I have played with Grub4dos and it is very easy to trick the system into thinking that grbldr is in fact ntlrd. So this time I tried WubiUefi (https://github.com/hakuna-m/wubiuefi). Installed it on Windows 7 and it works flawlessly. Only issue is it only works with Ubuntu and it's official flavors and I intended to use Neon instead. So, anyone knows a way to install Neon from WubiUefi or a way to manually install Neon inside a VHD (or VMDK, VDI, QCOW) file and have it boot up from Grub4dos which I successfully installed by hand already? Thanks in advance. Cheers PS - By the way, developer of WubiUefi has just agreed to include Neon on future WubiUefi's releases. https://github.com/hakuna-m/wubiuefi/issues/124#issuecomment-438017590 But does anyone have any other suggestions instead of WubiUefi? |
